<h1>General Rules</h1>
<p class="rules"> The general rules are intended as a guide and support for parents regarding the schooling of their children.<br><br>
	<strong>School opening hours</strong><br>
	Structured learning commences with circle time at 9:15am, and ends at 4:00pm.<br>
	Students must arrive between 8:30am and 9:15am.<br>
	Students must be collected between 4:00pm and 4:30pm.<br>
	<br>
	<strong>Absence</strong><br>
	If Students are absent due to illness the school must be notified in the morning either by telephone or e-mail.<br>
	If Students are absent for holidays during the school term, the school must be notified via telephone or e-mail at least 1 week beforehand.<br>
	If Students are being collected early, the school must be notified in the morning via telephone or e-mail.<br>
	<br>
	<strong>Late arrival</strong><br>
	Parents are asked to ensure that their Students are in their classrooms within the established times.<br>
	Students who arrive late will be allowed into school only with written permission from the school office.<br>
	It is extremely important to observe school hours out of respect for both staff and students.<br>
	<br>
	<strong>School meals</strong><br>
	Our menu plan has been developed by a nutritionist and approved by ASL. It is divided into two different menus, spring/summer and autumn/winter.
	Each season has four weekly menus which are offered to the Students in rotation.<br>
	If there is any child requiring for medical reasons a "special" diet, this must be certified by a Doctor.<br>
	<br>
	<strong>Evacuation procedure</strong><br>
	During the school year we will have two evacuation drills (one a fire drill and the other an earthquake drill).<br>
	Alarms are installed in the school.
	Information regarding this can be found in our emergency manual.<br>
